It’s News To Me
Play MP3
There you go
Killed by tears
Cameras rolling
Round your ears
Your baby’s dead
But on their phones
They’re picking over
The bones
It’s news to me
It’s news to me
It’s hurt to you
It kills your heart
I have no business
Taking part
I can have
No sense of loss
All I see is
Glitz and gloss
It’s news to me
It’s news to me
Can’t give you more
Nothing connects
God only knows
If it’s my turn next
You could be my sister
But the newsman’s smile
At the next bit of news
Cuts off my bile
The big-eyed box
Is on again
Shooting someone’s
Shooting pain
Third time round
Today, I guess,
Who the hell
Could now care less?
It’s news to me
It’s news to me
Don’t tell me
It’s someone’s son
We’re history
And then we’re gone
I do my job
And hope for luck –
And you tell me
I pass the buck?
It’s news to me
It’s news to me
You tell me
How I should feel
You and your friends know
What’s real
You tell me
How I should feel
Come in closer
Here’s the deal
It’s news to me
It’s news to me
It’s news to me
It’s news to me
It’s news to me
It’s news to me
Man has fever
Woman cries
Man strikes baby
Baby dies
Woman kills him
She must pay
Though he was dying
Anyway
It’s news to me
It’s news to me
It’s news to me
It’s news to me
It’s news to me
It’s news to me
